Well, there are several possible reasons that the Doctor says different ages. For starters, he lives inside the TARDIS. Unless you set up a system of keeping time inside a time machine, you can't keep track of your own life. The second reason is the writers switch around so much that it's hard to keep track of a little thing like age. The third is likely because he may have originally gone by Gallifrey years and not Earth years. It's possible that Gallifrey has longer years, thus after conversion, makes him seem older. The fourth possibility is that during the break between the end of the classic run and the beginning of the new run, he spent many years traveling alone, as was hinted in the first episode. How many years, however, is unknown. And the final reason is because the Doctor likes to be impressive. He lies, and occasionally rounds up. Even when his adventures don't actually add up to a year, he tends to add one if a year's passed in the present('06 to '07 equals +1, for example). Needless to say, his age is a mystery. Too much thinking about it would even give a Time Lord a headache.
